Building a Resilient Financial System

Keynote address by Jaime Caruana, General Manager of the BIS, at the 2012 ADB Financial Sector Forum on "Enhancing Financial Stability - Issues and Challenges"

Key messages are: i) financial stability is about resilience and should be prepared in advance; ii) preserving financial stability involves a wide range of policy areas; iii) a globalized financial system requires global rules; and iv) the end result we want to achieve is a system characterized by less leverage, better liquidity management, sounder incentives, less moral hazard, stronger oversight, and more transparency. The key challenges in carrying forward this agenda are: i) implementing what has been agreed, especially with regard to bank capital; ii) designing the right transition given a still weak recovery; iii) completing the regulatory reform agenda in the areas of liquidity standards, resolution regimes, OTC derivatives, and the shadow banking system; and iv) ensuring sound micro- and macroprudential oversight.
